Book blurb...

A rock doesn’t bleed. But when fourteen-year-old Alan Chandler wipes out on a lonely trail outside Kachina Village, Arizona, his blood soaks into a strange, dark blue stone...and something wakes up. By morning, his injuries are gone. By night, he’s faster than he should be… and the “rock” is shrinking. Then a voice speaks inside his mind. Ru is an alien intelligence - stranded, trapped, and running out of time. The nanites in Alan’s body can make him extraordinary, but only if Alan helps Ru reach the warship that’s been lost in the asteroid belt for thousands of years. Alan has five days to choose: Keep the power and become the key to a war humanity doesn’t even know exists OR Walk away and pray the universe doesn’t come looking for what he’s carrying. Quantum Rock is a high-tension YA sci‑fi thriller packed with first contact, secrets, superhuman abilities, and a choice that could cost Alan everything.
